That said, I love the area. There is a lot of great fishing close by, and the Highland Valley is absolutely gorgeous. My parents are in Logan Lake, and I'm trying to convince Hubby to move there.

I will be hiding in my office with the air running when its that hot Shelley. Cant take the heat very good anymore like when a young pup. Our neighbours are from Logan. They lived there last 30 yrs and retired to here.

Also will be making lotsa trips to Calgary now. Our sons company just moved him from Hinton to Calgary. They just in process of house purchase.

Red Coral trips.

gas here is pretty messed up usually cheaper on tues?
the rain will leave and the tumbleweed will roll.
you shouldnt have any evac notices in brock. the worst u will have to deal with is prob smoke for a lil bit.
there are a thousand lakes and great fishing quading etc everywhere.
enjoy the blowing sand cause after that its time to pull out the sleds.
. no matter what time of year it is traffic is never bad.

Looks like some great fishing. Look forward to doing some fly fishing again. Traffic does seem to flow very well. Long ways to some things though, as in milage but still faster than driving to some places in Brandon through all the lights and traffic.

Thanks Christy. BC license plates next week.

Welcome to BC Doug. I'm sure you'll love it here.

[Doug]

Thanks Lance.

I find the time shift a tad bit crazy. Missed different things starting at eastern times. I have Nascar on already, so not missing todays race.

Or calling and texting people back home, forgetting what time it is there.

Never seen the likes of it before. At least with Safeway points we fill at 1.08 when its low. Just have to watch the cycles. LOLOL

The gas prices magically seem to concide with busier weekends, mostly due to all the major highways passing through. So friday afternoon -- 1.25, and monday morning 1.12

BTW, welcome to kamloops, nice to have another reefer in town (just down the street acutally).

Doug, you snuck into town did ya...

actually this year it has been the opposite, cheaper on the long weekend prices go up Monday. it was normal to be pretty stable in gas prices here I found until costco opened there gas bar. now you never know when its going up. I just top up now when ever it goes below 1.15 which seams to happen every week. filled up a day early last week and missed out on the 1.09.

anyhow welcome to gods country, except I think this June must be close to setting some records for rain fall . I start my nights at work tomorrow, but we'll have to get together for a coffee pretty soon. I'll even buy since I don't have to buy for Brad anymore .

yes it will get brown here but ugly?? not a chance, I look out my window every day at the river valley hills and mountains, can't get to much of a better view for your front window...

you getting used to the trains over there yet?
